QF: Chiefs v Reds

[Mattasaurus]

Jacobson in particular has really added some sting from the bench

[antipodean]

WTF was that refereeing? I don't know what happened so "play on"

[taniwharugby]

I reckon there was 3 things wrong there

He took the easy option

[Kirwan]

The refereeing has been comically loose

[Derpus]

@antipodean Super Rugby refereeing.

[Kirwan]

@Derpus if you didn’t enjoy that, you don’t like rugby. Excellent game from both sides.

[Donsteppa]

I'll take that. I think that shot of Sam Cane's face just after the whistle tells the story.

[Mattasaurus]

Best contest all season, bloody entertaining.

[KiwiMurph]

That was a brilliant game. Well done both sides.

[mariner4life]

Great game! A real final.

Commiserations reds fans your team put in an awesome effort

Great win Chiefs. Made to work, found what was needed

[Donsteppa]

"Engrossing" and "an arm wrestle" were a couple of cliches that the commentators could have genuinely used for that game.

Jesus fuck eyore

[Kirwan]

@mariner4life he’s not wrong, but at lease in this game it went both ways.

[antipodean]

Tate McDermott blaming refereeing for the loss. Not captaincy material.

[Mattasaurus]

Tate - couple of "questionable calls" ... plenty both ways mate.. show some class you twerp

The reds turn up with their best performance in ages and nearly win a final in NZ and that's the takeaway?

Derpus says:

But... the australian team didn't win - therefore... Super Rugby is broken. A worthless comp. A highway to continued mediocrity.
The only solution is an Australia-only comp, where an Australian team is guaranteed to win. With the same referees. And the same players. But... no nasty teams to beat us. So... there's that.

[His Bobness]

What a surly and ill-tempered response from McDermott. Questionable calls? Sure. But from what I saw, that went both ways.

Led with it too!! Australian rugby in a fucking nutshell. Derpus is not an outlier
